instrument panel.
Temporarily exceeding the
programmed speed
► To temporarily exceed the programmed
speed threshold, fully depress the accelerator
pedal.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and
the displayed programmed speed ashes.
If it is exceeded for a prolonged period of time,
an audible warning is triggered.
Simply release the accelerator pedal to return to
below the programmed speed.
When the limit speed is exceeded but this is not
due to action by the driver (in case of a steep
slope, for example), an audible signal triggers
immediately.
Once the speed of the vehicle returns to the
programmed setting, the speed limiter functions
again: the display of the programmed speed
setting becomes xed again.
Switching o󰀨
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "0" position:
the display of information on the speed limiter
disappears.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, dashes are
displayed ashing and then xed instead of the
speed setting.
Have it checked by a Fiat Dealership or a
qualied workshop.
Cruise control - Specic
recommendations
The cruise control function does not
guarantee compliance with the maximum
authorised speed and the safety distance
between vehicles, the driver remains
responsible for their driving.
In the interest of public safety, only use cruise
control if the tra󰀩c conditions enable vehicles
to drive at a steady speed and maintain an
adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant while cruise control is
activated. If you press and hold one of the
speed setting modication buttons, your
vehicle may change speed very abruptly.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the set speed. Brake if
necessary to control the vehicle speed.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set
speed may not be reached or maintained.
Exceeding the programmed speed
setting
You can temporarily exceed the speed
setting by pressing the accelerator pedal (the
programmed speed ashes).
To return to the speed setting, release the
accelerator pedal (when the set speed is
reached again, the displayed speed stops
ashing).
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following
situations:
– In an urban area with the risk of
pedestrians crossing the road.
– In heavy tra󰀩c.
– On winding or steep roads.
– On slippery or ooded roads.
– In poor weather conditions.
– In the event of restricted visibility for the
driver.
– Driving on a speed circuit.
– Driving on a rolling road.
– When using snow chains, non-slip covers
or studded tyres.
